Fullerton : Businessman Will Head Panel on Constitution

Edward D. Paul, executive vice president of Great American Health Nutrition Inc., has been named chairman of the Fullerton Constitution Bicentennial Commission by the City Council, officials said.

Roy T. Kobayashi, an electrical technician at Rockwell International, was named commission vice chairman.

The panel was created at the request of Mayor Richard C. Ackerman to plan observances of the 200th anniversary of the signing of the U.S. Constitution. Fullerton’s observance will begin Sept. 17, the actual anniversary date, and will run for a year, according to the city officials.

Paul said the commission’s plans include a public forum on the Constitution and the law, and a one-day program for school children, who will share their own bicentennial projects.
